Yellowstone Park Motors ‘‘ along the very path” 


ALONG the very path where, ages ago, the 
moose, bear and elk found a way through the 
wilderness; where later, the Indian took the game 
trail for his own—runs now the Cody Road—an 
epic 19 mountain motor highway construction— 
through a land which once seen, never may be 
forgotten. A way through a region new and 
wonderful, yet older than the Appian Way. 


PHOTO BY HAYNES 


Al broad, safe trail skirting the shore of emerald 
lakes whose mirror-like surfaces reflect the forest 
of jack pine. Mountain lakes where God's wild 
creatures yet come to drink at the mouth of 
snow-water streams. 

Mountains are everywhere! Miles of untrod 
range whose pine-clad slopes appear as wave 
upon wave of dark green velvet.

Sylvan Pass—where * 


East is East and West is West’’ 


Up the rugged West slope of the Absaroka 
Range climbs the perfect road, until a way to the 
other side is eridnreenen Sylvan Pass—a colos- 
sal cleft near the top—timberless—nine thousand 
feet above sea level and one of America’s most 
inspiring viewpoints—where even Wyoming's 
glorious, everlasting sunshine fails to dissipate 
the snow, even in mid-summer,

The Road crosses over itself by means of The Corkscrew Bridge 


Tuen, down the eastern slope; behind—the 
National Park; ahead—thirty miles of wonder 
way through the Shoshone National Forest, 
sanctuary forever of the furred and feathered 
tribes. The picture shows one of the devious 
ways in which The Cody Road winds its way 
to the foot of the seven-mile hill and the edge 
of the Shoshone River which it follows all the 
way to Cody, Wyoming, fifty miles away.

The *‘dude ranch’’ is an institution almost exclusively Wyoming’ s own 


Tiny, inviting log cabin communities half 
hidden among the trees prove to be the famous 
“dude ranches’’—mountain resorts par excellence 
where lucky vacationists ride horseback, go fish- 
ing all the live-long day, or climb the surround- 
ing mountains by way of rest and recreation in 
the heart of the Buffalo Bill country.

The Holy City—a strange grouping of grotesque rock formations 


Leavinc the forest behind, the road, twisting 
and winding with every turn in the raging Sho- 
shone, enters a broad valley flanked by towering, 
bare cliffs in which the hand of erosion has 
carved a million fantastic configurations. Little 
imagination is required to identify familiar 
objects.

Water to irrigate a hundred thousand acres The Road 400 feet above the River 


Just ahead, the shining expanse of Shoshone Lake—seven miles long, 
scarce a mile wide, yet forty-two miles around, so serrated and jagged 
is its shore line. At the bottom of the lake lies the little old frontier 
town of Marquette, Wyo., where Owen Wister is said to have obtained 
much of the local color for his famous book The Virginian. 

From this point eastward the Cody Road beggars description. Just 
ahead—their summits looming skyward—Rattlesnake and Cedar moun- 
tains appear surely to block further progress. The question of how 
the road finds a way through the frowning mountain walls is a source 
of wild conjecture, as the sturdy touring cars enter the marvelous 
canyon through twin tunnels hewn out of solid granite. The grand 
climax of your trip is at hand.

Now at the turbulent Shoshone’ s edge Look for the double rainbow in the sun-shot spray 


CoNSTRUCTED by Uncle Sam at the narrowest point in the six- 
mile gorge, the Shoshone Dam is 200 feet long at the top but only 
80 feet long at the bottom; 10 feet thick at the top and 108 feet thick 
at the base. Behind the dam the Jocked-up water rises to within a 
few feet of the crest, forming Shoshone Lake—on the opposite side 
a sheer drop of 328 feet, to a mere ribbon. Consider fora moment the 
volume of pent-up water and the pressure which it exerts upon the face 
of the dam, and then marvel at the bold ingenuity of the engineers 
who, to devise an adequate spillway, bored a tunnel through the 
granite mountain around the end of the dam. The picture shows how 
admirably it functions.
